About

hard cheese

How to choose

Hard cheeses can be useful in both the kitchen and on a cheese board. Choose Parmigiano Reggiano by maturity, Pecorino Romano for its salty character, or compare an aged Manchego with Comte when selecting a table cheese.

Older is not automatically better for every recipe. Think about flavour intensity, portion size and how much cheese the dish needs. For a direct comparison of the Parmigiano ages, visit our dedicated Parmesan selection; for alternatives to grate, browse Grating Cheeses.
